According to TFA they don't oppose age verification, they oppose the required method of age verification, namely submitting personal information and IDs.

They say they would support secure verification, I guess like having a digital signature from an authority, like the government.

I wonder if PornHub is doing anything to help this happen, though. I doubt it...



They do oppose age verification because despite knowing there was a problem of underage people viewing their content they did nothing to stop this. Now a government solution has been imposed they are acting as if they are now some how a responsible business.

I don’t know the answers or the right way to implement things but age verification is not an unreasonable requirement.
